Cool...I can ask for an authentication tonight...just wasnt sure style name.

See my "ETA"s in my first post. It's authentic, I just can't find a number.

ETA - the closest I can find on the Wayback only has one small photo that doesn't include any style number or links, from Feb 7, 2011, Kristin Leather Crossbody $158. Scroll all the way down to the bottom of the page, there are leather and patent versions:
http://web.archive.org/web/20110207...806-en?t1Id=62&t2Id=38806&tier=2&icid=sitemap

EATA - found this, so I'm guessing the style number for the leather version is 43673, see:
http://web.archive.org/web/20101206.../image/Coach/43673_qbv2_a0?$browse_thumbnail$

and use the "view page info" in the right-click menu if your computer has that feature. Fourth one from the bottom in the "thumbnails" section. And yep, that's the right link so now we have the style number, 43673

EATA - WOOT! From right here at tPF:
https://www.forum.purseblog.com/thr...ags-not-yet-seen-on-tpf.652233/#post-17561589

and this confirms it:
https://www.ebay.com/itm/NWT-Vintag...riorityMailPaddedFlatRateEnvelope!60452!US!-1

So - genuine Kristin Leather Crossbody, style 43673, late 2010 or early 2011.

Oh and I was halfway through doing authentication on my phone when you authenticated it here..sorry...couldnt get rid of it..chubby fingers...am now in computer at work..should I remove if still able to?

Don't worry about it, we'll figure out that it's already handled. Or we'll just post a link back to these posts.

ETA - It's handled.

They dont come with a creed do they?..am awaiting a picture of the white tag if it has one.

From what I remember, I don't think any Kristins came with the small white tag in the pocket, since the last Kristin styles came out around 2013 and Coach didn't start using the small white tags in place of stamped serial numbers until some time in 2014.


ETA - Here's what looks like an identical bag except for the metallic leather

Style number is listed as F48986 but I don't think that's the right style number. All other listings for that number show a different pattern in the decorative seams on the front.

I've found several other listings for the same style, but none of them have a style number in the listing.

I just looked in my bag and it has the brown "Made in China" tag but no white tag and no numbers. I just have it in my notes as the Kristin Crossbody 45128 SV BK. It is hard to be sure without seeing pics of the inside - but my little bag has a built-in wallet:

Yep, I found quite a few in that style, but the flap on your bag is stiffer, more elaborate, and looks padded out and stitched around the edges. I think the less elaborate style came first and then styles like yours were introduced about 6 months to a year later. Most of the KristinCrossbodys seem to have the wallet-style credit card slots like yours and the one Narnanz asked about. Yours is probably from 2011 or 2012. I don't think any of the Kristin Crossbodys have creed patches and they're probably all too early to have the white tag with the production codes.

I have several Wayback pages of Kristin styles saved since I love the bags so was able to find a pretty good selection of styles of both bags and accessories. The problem was finding style numbers since most of the Waybacks from that time period 2010-11 don't include any active links from the main gallery photo pages to the Description page, and clicking the photo or the style name is just a dead end. Using the right-click menu and the Media link seems to be the only way to find the style number on the Wayback.

The last 2 links in the final version of my post, to tPF and Ebay, have to be the same bag as the one Namanz has. It looks like Coach did at least 6 different Kristin Crossbody styles, but I think hers was one of the earliest.

Good to know, you are a fountain of valuable information - thanks!
 
Wondering if anyone can help me with a name got this one?
Hyacinth authenticated it for me on the appropriate thread and said it was from early 70’s. What a testament to Coach’s glove-tanned leather that a 50 year old bag can still look near perfect! Did they have names then?
Thanks for any info!

Nice find! It looks like a Saddle Bag. There were two sizes, #9205 Saddle Bag Small (about 8" x 10") and #9210 Saddle Bag Large, (about 13" x 10"). Here's a 1970s style sheet showing both of them, and a 1978 price list:
